The face of the moon was in shadow
Western-trained nurses accept offers when three things are visible: correct QCHP category, DataFlow/PSV sequenced early, and privileges activated on time. We build those gates into the search so candidates see a credible plan, acceptance rises, and your rota becomes predictable.
The QCHP hiring plan (copy/paste)
1) Role & grade (no ambiguity)
Map the advert to the QCHP category (e.g., Registered Nurse/ Specialist Nurse).
Publish core (Day-1) vs advanced scope with named proctors (N cases).
List out-of-scope tasks to prevent drift.
2) Document hygiene that passes PSV
Sequence: legalised → translated → single colour PDFs (300–400 dpi).
Names must be passport-exact (all middle names).
One source = one PDF (education, licence/registration, employment, Good Standing, police clearance).
3) DataFlow/PSV early
Launch at shortlist; store Case IDs; review weekly; respond to insufficiency in <48 h.
Request Good Standing inside the accepted recency window.
4) Clinical panel = governance, not trivia
SBAR with numeric escalation lines (e.g., SpO₂ <92% >5 min; MAP <65).
Independent double-check (IDC) for insulin/anticoagulants/opioids/concentrated electrolytes.
Infection control for clinic rooms; IFUs respected; VIP privacy etiquette for executive clientele.
5) Offer architecture that moves relocations
Total compensation (TCO): base + housing/allowances + flights + licensing/PSV + CPD.
Rota hygiene in writing: 4-week visibility; ≤3 consecutive nights; protected post-call; 20–30-minute SBAR handover.
Insurance: occurrence preferred; if claims-made, confirm tail in writing. Settings list clinic/hospital; add home/hotel only if domiciliary is in scope.
6) Onboarding Day 0–60 (signals, not promises)
Day 0: EMR/device access, lockers, supply lists.
Week 1: supernumerary shifts; mentor touchpoints Day 3/10 logged.
Week 2: submit core privileges; upload malpractice schedule.
~Day 30: core privileges approved; advanced sign-offs begin with named proctors.

Red flags—and calm fixes
Title ≠ QCHP category → remap before advertising.
All-in salary only → publish TCO components; acceptance improves.
Claims-made without tail → secure tail letter before start.
Domiciliary implied but uninsured/unprivileged → add rider + privilege wording or remove from scope.
Messy PDFs → rebuild colour PDFs at 300–400 dpi; one source per file; passport-exact names.
